About Joshua
Joshua Walpole is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in Utah with seven years of clinical experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, and depression. He helps individuals understand patterns that keep them stuck and build practical skills to manage emotions and relationships.
He regularly addresses how trauma affects the nervous system and relationships. He talks with clients about the reasons behind certain thoughts and behaviors. That often leads to learning emotional regulation skills and clearer personal boundaries.
Joshua uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques. His work draws on cognitive behavioral approaches, Internal Family Systems ideas, psychodrama, lifespan integration, and existential frameworks. He explains methods in plain terms and connects them to everyday problems like compulsive behaviors, betrayal-related pain, and communication breakdowns.
Sessions focus on increasing awareness and then turning that awareness into concrete steps. Joshua emphasizes building resilience through small, practical changes. He supports clients in sorting immediate symptoms from longer-term patterns and in testing new ways of relating to themselves and others.
People looking to address loneliness, guilt, shame, forgiveness, life purpose, or self-love will find these topics part of his work. He also helps with relationship communication problems and intimacy-related struggles. The first session typically looks at priorities and makes a simple plan for what to work on next.

Approaches used in remote sessions and how they help
Joshua uses practical, evidence-based techniques that target thoughts, parts of the self, and embodied responses. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear exercises and experiments; this is useful for anxiety, compulsive behaviors, and depression. Internal Family Systems ideas help people notice and work with different inner parts that hold beliefs or strong emotions, which can ease shame, guilt, and self-criticism.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Joshua treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients test which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying an approach, reviewing how it feels, and adjusting based on what helps most.
The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to schedule regular follow-ups and to practice techniques between sessions so therapy fits into everyday life.
